It wasn’t always like that for me.  But at
some point I started treating myself as
my Valentine and I chose to treat myself
with the loving kindness I deserved and
wanted.

Today I received this gift from Bob Proctor.
(You may also have received it, but if you
didn’t, I’m sure he’d be happy for me to pass
it on.)

The Success Puzzle Workbook

If you’re not familiar with Bob Proctor, I consider
him the father of popular personal development.
I met him in Australia and several other times.
At 79-ish he has more presence and clarity and
vitality than most people half his age.

His commitment to success, to the progressive
realization of a worthy goal (Napoleon Hill’s
definition of success) is unwavering in service.

I have seen this video over and over–it never ceases to
inspire me to ask myself questions.

“What is my best?”
“Am I satisfied with who I’m being?”
“Am I really playing full out?”
“As a leader, do I inspire others to play full out?”

On one level I know that all I can do is all I can do…and
yet, I also know that I am making it up all the time.  So
what does it really mean to me to do my best?

Watch this video and tell me what it inspires in you.
What do you ask of yourself?  of your teammates/partners?

Vibrational Transfer of Financial Freedom

I received this quote this morning right after I had been reflecting on what I had been saying that brought more of what I wanted vs what I didn’t want.  Your feelings give an indicator of your focus, and your language reflects your thoughts, which lead to feelings.  Here’s a personal example I’d like to share.

I have an amazing main activity that draws to me large sums of money regularly.  I love it because I can be 100% transparent, focused on giving and receiving tremendous value, and because sooooo many people are able to get results right away.

I had been scanning my experiences for something that would not only work for me, but was easy to apply for others as well.  During that period of scanning, I had created some financial setbacks for myself.

When I found this, everything lined up and immediately I had turned around that situation:  Everyone who did what I did got results as well.  I was in heaven.  In over 10 years of network marketing, 100′s of $1000′s, up and down success, I had never seen anything like this before, with a system that was real, even baby boomer dinosaurs like me who didn’t speak internet-eze could do it,  and be in the black within days or weeks.  It isn’t even a “Business.”

For a while I did great, and then there was a slower period.  What happened?

I noticed that I was saying to people, “Even when I made 100′s of $1000′s of
dollars in a former business, it didn’t feel good when I made money and others
didn’t.”  Subtley, I was looking for evidence of others not making money and
myself not feeling good.  My focus turned from the clear evidence in front of
me that this works, that I was helping myself and others, that anyone could
do it, to introducing the possibility of people not doing it, of not feeling good. 

So I got what I was focusing on!

How we feel sends out a vibrational signal that attracts more of that to us.
Omigosh!  I was grooving in on  the mental habit pattern of seeing so many people
in traditional network marketing flounder and how awful that felt.  I stopped and
remembered to ask myself, “What do you want?”
And I remembered to look for evidence of that.

I immediately started again to attract people who expect success.  These people
took the action I took and were getting results as well.  This activity gets 50-88%
duplication, with members putting money in their pockets within the first few
weeks.  Within my group alone over $250,000 has been received within my first
9 months.  When I extend that out to include my inviter and his group, that number
grows to over $2 million, in the last 9 months!

In an industry that creates multi-millionaires, as well as 97% drop outs, it is
very refreshing to be a part of something that creates millionaires AND soooo
many people who succeed.  It does require letting go the memory, the habit,
of those 97% who give up, and focus instead on the new experience of 88% who
play full out and WIN!

I am excited and renewed.  I am grateful every day to offer an opportunity for
people to shift to a mindset of success and financial freedom, with an activity
and system they can plug into for success.  YAAAY!!

P.S.  Go to GetMoneyAndTime to see this awesome primary activity I do.
Imagine 5,000 people per day hearing a message that sends them to the
site and then only speaking to people who WANT the experience I have.

FUN!!!

What kind of day did you make up?

Did something happen that threw off your
whole day, or uplifted it?

I was listening to a friend this morning as he spoke
of helping his daughter through some anxiety she
was having about a big upcoming event.  He listened
to her for a few minutes, and then suggested she turn
on the light.

By making the choice to flip the switch, literally, out
of the darkness she was sitting in, she was able to
re-assess her upcoming event and relax.  She made
a plan that would support her.  She remembered how
well prepared she really is.  She chose uplifting positive
thoughts, as well as solutions to things she needed to
address.

She went back to sleep and woke enthusiastically to a new day.

From Napoleon Hill, to Jack Canfield, to John Assaraf, creating mastermind
groups is a shortcut to maximizing success.

John Assaraf in his blog today inspired me to put in this entry.

How to Form a Mastermind Group:

• Align yourself with people who wish to grow in both business and personal areas and who have similar values
• Compose a Mission Statement that outlines the group’s vision and purpose
• Select a Leader, either permanent or to serve in terms
• Set up weekly, biweekly or monthly meetings
• Prepare an agenda for each meeting -90 minutes/1 day
• Rotate first speaker in meeting to ensure each member’s needs are addressed

One of the hazards of working from home for ourselves is a tendency to
isolate.  A Mastermind group gives us the opportunity to exchange ideas
and add new infusion of creativity to our thinking.  It is important to align
ourselves with like-minded individuals, who may or may not be part of
our industry.

If you don’t have specific people you can create your group with, create
one in your mind’s eye.  Who are the authors, business leaders, people you
would like to emulate in your life?  When I have a question or dilemma,
I often envision myself in a circle with John Assaraf, Mark Victor Hansen,
Andy Andrews, Michael Losier, Kevin Trudeau.  I ask myself what they might
say or suggest.  I call forward the parts of myself that resonate with these
people and picture them on my own winning team.

I also have certain partners I call daily–we uplift and inspire one another.
We share our wins and things we’ve learned to help one another.  We are
accountable to keep agreements.  We are solution oriented and raise vibrations.

Think of 5 people in your world that you might form a Mastermind group with.
Think of 5 people to mastermind with in your vision.

Take the action to call at least one of those people in the next hour.

Money is kind of the by-product of Joyful Wealth living
–Living on purpose

There’s a new release by Napoleon Hill, Outwitting The Devil,
that is a supposed conversation he had requiring the Devil to
give up the secrets of how people can outwit him.

The biggest clue to Devilish lack of control in life is to drift
through life, without consciousness, without any plan,
without thinking, vision, and purpose.  The strongest
clue to outwitting the devil and thwarting his misery
is to stand up inside against the habits of drifting.

In a way that sounds like Duh, but it takes a conscious
decision to choose to live on purpose, not just drifting
through expected norms laid down by others.

I love being an entrepreneur because I am accountable
to myself and being in service to people who work with me.
I love knowing that I am the deliberate creator of my success
as well as my failure.  If I don’t like what I’m getting, then I can
change my thoughts, feelings (vibrational frequency), my
attitude, my activity and create more ON PURPOSE,

Working from home it’s easy to drift through the day and
wonder where it went.  I set aside a certain amount of
time to fritter, but fundamentally I stay on course, loving
every minute of what I’m doing, loving the results, and
expressing gratitude for it all.  But, that’s a whole nother subject.

Have a Joyful Wealth weekend, attracting love, joy, abundance,
and infinite possibilities.  Love, Sharon

Is it your birthday today?  Happy happy Birthday!

I don’t really track birthdays as much as I would
like to, so I am always happily surprised when
others remember mine.  I decided 50 years ago
to make my birthday special for myself, regardless
of anyone else.

January 5 is close to Christmas, so as a kid it kind of
got lost in the shuffle.  I had no control over most
of my life or so-called special days.  I did have control
of celebrating myself on my birthday.  Then, as an adult
I would throw myself a birthday party–it started out
just me, then became a major event, culminating in my
favorite party on my 40th birthday. (That’s a whole
different story.)

Then I started moving around a lot and frankly, turning
my life upside down.  So my next big party will probably
be my 70th!

So, what’s the point of this post?  We want to CELEBRATE
ourselves, our lives, our creations and our dis-creations.
As an entrepreneur working from home, it is especially
important to keep raising my vibration, feeling good every
day, so that I draw to me more good vibrations.

A birthday (mine or yours or someone else’s) is a great time
to celebrate all the good in life, to let go of things we’re ready
to let go of, and to hit the re-set button.  I love having a birthday
early in the year to plan ahead for the coming year.  But if my
birthday were in June, or some other month, I would use it as
a time to re-assess where I am and where I’m headed.

The point is to live in Joyful Wealth all the time, feeling good
and “gooder” every day.  I love knowing that I am in charge
of choosing better-feeling thoughts and celebrating the magic
of every moment.  From this place I get to say Happy Birthday
every day, knowing I re-create mySelf from moment to moment.
the Law of Attraction always matches my vibration.

Say Happy Birthday to yourself or someone else today.
What are 5 things to celebrate about yourself today?
What are 5 things you are grateful for in your life?
What are 5 things you are looking forward to (goals)?

Much love and Light, Sharon

I am soooo grateful that I have exactly what each person needs to fit their
personality and their budget to assist them to fulfill their dreams in financial
abundance.

I was a teacher in the South Bronx in 1969,
ambitiously wanting to eliminate racism from
the NYC school system, and prepare the children
to stand up inside themselves to choose a life
of their own dreams.

I remember I was teaching a class in Black Studies
as a first year teacher, relieving the main teachers
for their break.  These were 5th graders, deemed the
most promising students. The only white child in
the school was in this class.

I had just finished sharing a Langston Hughes poem,
What Happens To a Dream Deferred?  I asked
the class what Martin Luther King’s dream was.
One of the students stood up to say it, quite impressively.

Marvin woke up out of his usual disinterested stupor
as she spoke, but immediately slunk back down, with
“That’ll never happen,” muttered under his breath.  So
I asked him, “So, what happens to that dream, Marvin?”
And for a brief moment, I saw his brain in gear, wondering,
looking for an answer.  The whole class was quiet, also
wondering what he would say.

But then the main teacher, Mrs. Spiliotos had entered the
room and interrupted the rapt silence–”What do you mean
it’ll never happen?  Why, Mrs. Winfield is here [my name at
the time].  And, look, James is here [the single white child
in the school].

Marvin looked at me with the Light gone out of his eyes again.
The moment was gone.  I have always thought about it’s possibility.
Mrs. Spiliotos took back the class.

And today, there is Martin Luther King day, over 40 years later.

Where are those children today?  How many survived?  How many became an entrepreneur?

(I hope everyone of them, including Mrs. Spiliotos, gets to see Joyful Noise
and celebrate the distance.  If you haven’t seen this pure good vibration–go.)

I travel the world with my sisters and friends in my business–
for fun, inspiration, and profit.  I am a stand for living full-out,
regardless of circumstances.

I love life, grateful to be on purpose.
